Benny Benassi was born in Milan in 1967 and then grew up in the provincial town of Reggio Emilia, Italy. He started dj-ing when he ws still at school and has been producing with his cousin Alle Benassi for about ten years at Off Limits studios. His first as a producer was with the track "I feel so fine" by KMC feat. Dhany which went to n°1 in the UK club charts in 2001.
The following year, working under the BENNY BENASSI presents THE BIZ trademark, Benny and Alle came up with "Satisfaction" and in one fell swoop ravaged the dancefloors and dominated sales charts round the world. The album “Hypnotica" followed. In the meantime Benny and Alle produced more melodic dance music under the Benassi Bros. banner. The charts of half the planet gave them thumbs up.
The Benassis have also remixed artists such as Outkast, David Guetta, Moby, Goldfrapp, Paul Oakenfold, Faithless and Public Enemy, to name but a few.
Benny has won tons of prizes and awards around the world and continues to tour the five continents with his unique style, once described as "electro, sort of house-tec, dirty and cool, sweaty and smooth".
In 2008 Benny and Alle won a Grammy Award for his remix of Public Enemy’s “Bring the noise”.
The new album “Rock n Rave” contains tracks featuring Black Box, Farenheit, Dino Lenny, Mia J, Public Enemy, Channing and Iggy Pop.
His own productions are released through Energy Productions in Italy and Ultra in U.S.A. At the same time, Benny talent scouts for his own brand new label, Pump-kin, designed to create space for young djs and producers of electronic club music.

| Ha! I was right all along, the reason why EDC ends at 2am this year is because Insomniac will be having their OFFICIAL after party.. sucks that the after party is NOT trance |

He has a pretty strong one actually... |

But at a show like that he isn't the draw, at EDC and Pop Armin or Deadmau5 are the big draw, Benny is just there.
When he plays club shows does he have big turnout? |

YES!!!
Bennie would play at Vanguard once or twice a year and the place would be PACKED! The POP after party at Ruby Skye had a HUGE line down the street. But that could be either because of Bennie playing or the club was open for after hours. |

When I have seen him, the place has always been packed as . |

Well his set at Pop was so good!
I just get tired of seeing him so often!
I saw picks of the line at Ruby, CRAZY! Then again 50,000 people wewre looking for somewhere to go at 2am...
Anyway, I will see him at EDC, not likely I'd pay more than $15 to see him AGAIN in the same day. $10 maybe |
